All aboard the hype train?
- by Ben Kerry
Battlefield 6 is here – after years of waiting, EA’s big FPS series has made its grand return on Xbox Series X and S. We’ve seen a lot of hype for this one in all corners of the internet already — including in the comments here at Pure Xbox — and we want to know if you’ve been bitten by the Battlefield bug and are playing the game this weekend.
As we’ve mentioned a few times already, we’re knee-deep in this one over the next few days. Campaign is wrapped up for us now, and we’re just putting the full multiplayer suite through its paces before delivering our final verdict. Some early reviews are already out though, and things are looking pretty good for Battlefield 6 so far.
Whilst BF6 isn’t on Xbox Game Pass at launch, Ultimate members do get a launch discount thanks to EA Play. Subscribers get 10% off by default — bringing the game down to $62.99 / £62.99 on release — which is a nice little bonus if you want to grab the game ASAP and prefer digital as your purchase method. We reckon there might be some impulse purchasing going on with this one over the weekend!
Which leads us onto our main question here, are you jumping aboard the hype train; buying Battlefield 6 during the launch weekend? Do you already have it and are waiting to destroy us online? Alternatively, are you avoiding day one releases these days, biding your time to see where the game is when everything’s settled down and/or the title is on Game Pass/EA Play?
Give us a pick in the poll up above and talk to us about BF6 down in the comments!
